I'm Wendy, a visual-turned-product designer with startup and agency experience. I help simplify complex user journeys to better serve users' stories.
Having lived in China, the UK, and the US in the past 20 years, I’ve developed a unique strength in decoding people's emotions from diverse backgrounds. As a designer, I want to use my creative juice to optimize and get people's stories out. After gaining a bachelor's in Communications Design from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, I started my career in visual design at creative agencies. As much as I love storytelling for brands, I want to deliver practical solutions that address real human needs. This led me to pursue a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction at Carnegie Mellon. Since then, I've been immersed in the world of early-stage startups in the B2B SaaS space, bringing product visions to life.
Currently I'm on the lookout for new full-time opportunities to contribute my design expertise to collaborative teams. Let's chat! ↗
